Sammy Watkins injury update: How to handle Rams WR vs. Cowboys
Sammy Watkins is ready to roll vs. the Cowboys in Week 4.

Watkins was placed in the NFL concussion protocol following the team’s Week 3 win over the San Francisco 49ers, a game in which he caught six passes for 106 yards and two scores. He was limited in practice on Wednesday before going full on Thursday and Friday.
Assuming Watkins plays this week, he could be primed for a big game against a Cowboys secondary that’s been decimated in recent weeks. They enter Sunday with three cornerbacks on the injury report, two of which are questionable in Nolan Carroll and Chidobe Awuzie.
Even if they play, Watkins has shown he can produce against anyone with decent quarterback play, which he’s getting from Jared Goff.
Fantasy Impact: Watkins will face a Cowboys defense allowing the 13th-most fantasy points to receivers this season, including a tie for the third-most catches allowed to receivers. Keep Watkins in your starting lineup.
